CLC Lodging, a Corpay brand and the leader in workforce lodging in America, is excited to announce the expansion of its project-based negotiations to all its members. This new service aims to make group and extended-stay bookings more affordable and straightforward for travelling teams.
With the new Group Reservation services, CLC Lodging members can now submit project-based and long-term lodging requests directly from their accounts. The company handles all aspects of sourcing, negotiations, and reservation changes based on the specific project criteria, ensuring that members receive the best deals while simplifying complex travel arrangements.
“Any company with workforce travel knows the challenges of negotiating and managing reservations, chasing down missing receipts, and supporting last-minute changes-not to mention overpaying for hotels,” said Ryan Guthrie, President of CLC Lodging. “That’s why CLC Lodging has spent more than 45 years helping companies improve their workforce travel programs. We’re proud to extend our project negotiation team and technology to offer group reservations for any CLC member with project-based or long-term lodging needs.”
Kathy Bishop, Senior Vice President of Product at CLC Lodging, explained how the new service works. “Businesses can request group reservations through their CLC web portal. Once they enter their request details, CLC searches for them. They can then choose the reservation options that best fit their needs. We’re excited to bring this option to our clients who need to make large numbers of reservations for complex travel projects.”
Here’s how the Group Reservations work:
Easy Access: Members needing to book longer-term stays or manage complex projects can use the group reservations option in the CLC portal. Typical requests include stays over 30 days or requiring more than 10 rooms.
Custom Solutions: CLC Lodging searches and negotiates to present 3-5 discounted options that meet the trip criteria, including location, nightly budget, amenities, stay dates, and room details.
Comprehensive Management: CLC Lodging handles all aspects of the selected reservation, manages any changes, and provides a simplified, consolidated group booking invoice.
“CLC’s policy controls, coding, billing, and reporting are already designed for project travel,” added Guthrie. “Now, our team of project negotiators and reservation management specialists can reduce the time businesses spend negotiating, booking, and managing project-based and long-term stays. And the best news—Group Reservations is included in CLC membership, with no minimum usage or monthly fees.”
With this new service, CLC Lodging members can save time and select from multiple travel options tailored to their project needs. Members can also view reservations directly from the CLC Lodging portal and simplify invoice reconciliation through a single source.
As CLC Lodging continues to innovate and expand its services, it remains dedicated to providing cost-effective, streamlined solutions for workforce travel, allowing companies to focus on their projects while leaving the lodging logistics to the experts.
